I’ve seen other threads with titles such as “Ask the Gay Guy” or “Ask the Jewish Guy,” and I was wondering if any members of the forum happened to be Raelians. I don’t really understand the Raelian religion (if it even is a religion) and I’d like to learn more.

Disclaimer: I am not a Raelian, and have no real respect for their (or most other ‘religious’, although as I understand it, Raelians would take offense to it being termed a ‘religion’) beliefs.

I have read their site completely because I do not like talking about things I don’t know anything about. I have to admit that my conclusion is very negative and downright insulting to ‘Rael’. My apologies if I offended anyone.
